  1. Maybe he just wants to get the job checking all the girl athletes to make sure they're girls.
  2. You did that yourself.
  3. I still can't get over "I just care about sports and official documentation" as the explanation. Jesus fucking christ. I'd be a lot more sympathetic if it was something like "I was raised in an extremely religious household to hate gay people and then I got a boner once when I saw an attractive trans woman and have not known how to feel about anything since then and am very anxious and angry about everything as a result!" "Trans people are fine but I voted to exterminate them because of a letter on their driver's license" isn't something I ever could've even come up with myself as some fictitious illustration of the banality of evil. If someone else had proposed it as the motivation for a fictional character in a story idea they had I'd have told them it was too stupid and that the motivation must be something deeper. But nope, that's it. And THEY call US npcs.
  4. These are the same guys that love to pose with their gun collection and post tons of videos about how they're always ready to defend themselves and their families from government tyranny when a Democrat proposes universal background checks or waiting periods for gun purchases.
  5. We're already at the point where the only path to redemption for people who voted for Trump because they sincerely didn't think he'd be like this is for them to immediately own up to being colossal dumbasses and be willing to take to the streets when the time comes and physically put themselves between the guns and other protesters. I think we all know TB91 isn't going to ever do that. He's going to cheer on as Trump orders people shot and then when the tide turns against him he'll just go quiet. He'll change usernames and throw his MAGA hat in the trash and pretend he never actually supported Trump. Millions will. Hey, at least he's acknowledging that "they" can be singular.
  6. Had to vote to exterminate trans people (though really all I WANTED was the driver's license thing, I swear!) because Riley Gaines got 5th place instead of 4th place in a race. That's a totally reasonable case for supporting nazis, right?
  7. She's entitled to healthcare because she's a human being you dipshit. You're really not helping your case here.
  8. FIFY. "Hey I got nothing against trans people, I just don't think a trans woman should be able to have a W on her driver's license or be able to get necessary healthcare so I voted for the guys who want to exterminate them. I don't want them to do that though, I just want them to fix the whole driver's license problem." Imagine explaining that in this situation and thinking it's a good justification:
  9. You do see how that makes your vote for a nazi worse, not better, right?
  10. You mean the thing they were literally talking about doing in 2020 after he had already lost the election? If you're going to wait until he's openly murdering hundreds of Americans to admit you were wrong, it will be too late for you.
  11. You voted for a nazi. I'm guessing more than once. It's not like his fascism was a secret. We all saw it a decade ago. Hell, he even had his richest donor do a fucking nazi salute at his inauguration. You picked your side. When he's ordering troops to fire on protesters, know you voted for that because you thought Troph had the wrong letter on her driver's license.
  12. You voted for nazis because Troph had an "F" on her driver's license instead of an "M"? That's your fucking justification? Jesus man, I'd have more respect for you if your actual justification was "the nazi party offered me a great career opportunity and I didn't give a shit about the cost to others."
  13. Parents like this should be imprisoned.
  14. The DOGE cuts aren't about saving money and there won't be any savings. They'll in fact cost us trillions over time. They're solely about eliminating anyone who pissed Elon off in the past by having the temerity to regulate his companies. Also: Stop preemptively conceding to fascists that they might be right about something. Your attempts at finding common ground aren't going to help persuade them. They're fascists, they're not persuadable. All you're doing is telling anyone else reading that the fascists have a point about something.
  15. Naw you pussy, you don't get to pick and choose now. You voted for all of it. Stand tall like a man and own that shit.
  16. It's ok to admit you got turned on by a trans woman once.
  17. "You made me vote for a nazi because you cared more about the facism than his opponent's age!"
  18. When we get through this Sulzberger needs to be treated as a fascist collaborator.
  19. The little nazis who survived WW2 never realized the error of their ways. We just killed enough that those who remained ceased to matter politically.
  20. You'd think 52-80 would have more sympathy for those with mental disorders.
  21. Man don't speak that shit into existence. We have enough horror to deal with.
  22. The problem is getting Trump to pay upfront is impossible.
  23. Damnit, I guess I gotta check in over the weekends more. I totally missed Ana praising JD Vance for complaining to Germany that they're too mean to their nazis. That's the good shit right there.
  24. Let me try again. You and I are generally aligned on the view that the Dems abandoned labor-focused politics out of short-sighted political considerations that hollowed out their strength as a political party. You can point out evidence of earlier shifting toward the "center," but i think this essentially began in earnest with Clinton's election in 92. The Dems hadn't won the white house for three elections and so when Clinton won while triangulating*, Democratic leadership (with a nice push from corporate lobbyists) took the lesson that triangulation is what wins them elections. I don't know where "and used representational issues and language policing to acquire the moral license to do it" fits into this story, but it sure isn't in 1992 or 1996. * of course, none of them ever thought to ask if triangulating actually won Clinton the election or if he was just the lucky beneficiary of the right's coalition falling apart for reasons that had nothing to do with him.
